Juvenile

This young fledge was crying for a feed when I took this shot. They hop around hoping for a tit bit but I think this one’s parents were training it to look for it’s own food. It will get its adult plumage later this year but for now it is a very dull brown and grey. On the seafront in the summer months you see crèches of them all waiting to get their adult plumage.
Best on black

Thank you for all your lovely comments and favs all are appreciated and welcome.
Great shot - they are fun to watch at this stage as they wait to be fed - fav
